Pupil Premium and Sports Premium
Pupil Premium
The Pupil Premium was introduced in April 2011. The purpose of this funding is to address the attainment gap between vulnerable pupils and others.
In 2012-2013 schools were allocated Pupil Premium funding for children from low income families who were eligible for free school meals or who have been looked after continuously for more than six months.
The level of premium set for 2013-14 was £953 per pupil for pupils eligible for free school meals, pupils in care who had continuously been looked after for six months and pupils who have been eligible for free school meals at any point in the last six years.
Funding from 2014-15 was set at £1,300 per pupil for pupils eligible for free school meals and schools will also receive £1,900 for each looked after pupil.
For the academic year 2015-16 we received £312,940 consisting of £299,640 for pupils eligible and £13,300 for looked after children.
For the up-coming academic year 2016-17 we are set to received £311,398 consisting of £303,600 for eligible children and £7,798 for looked after children.
We are free to spend pupil premium as we see fit however we must demonstrate how this funding has a positive and clear impact on attainment for those pupils who are entitled. Click on the links at the bottom of the page to see how we are using this money to help support our children:
Sports Premium
The Government funding of £150 million per annum for academic years began in 2013/2014 to provide new, sustainable primary school sport funding. This funding is being jointly met and provided by the Departments for Education, Health and Culture and Media and Sport and shall see money going directly to primary school Headteachers and Principals to spend on improving the quality of sport and PE for all their children.
The sport funding can only be spent on sport and PE provision at the Nottingham Academy. We have joint priorities with the Greenwood Dale Foundation Trust.
The Nottingham Academy will have to spend the sport premium funding on improving our provision of PE and sport through and beyond the school day but we have the freedom to choose how we do this.

Buffet RC Clarinet (440/442)
The Buffet RC Bb clarinet is one of our most popular professional model clarinet. The choice of professionals since 1955.
This new model version is the first variation of the RC in nearly 40 years. It now comes with 2 barrels (65mm & 66mm), enabling it to play at A-440 & A-442. It also enables flexibility in either cold or hot weather. It also has a slightly reduced bell flare at the bottom. Visually there is a new "RC" logo set into a silver-plated disc on the front of the top joint.
You can try out this new version at our Hove shop - we can also send one to our other shops on request.

R13 or RC?
The Buffet R13 and RC clarinets are very similar. The R13 was designed for the American market and the RC for the European market. Previously, the R13 has been more popular in the UK, but it is becoming more of a 50/50 split recently.
The R13 has a very slightly darker sound to it and the RC has a little more flexibility. The bore on the R13 is more cylindrical and the RC is more tapered at the lower end, the speaker pipe is also higher up. The keywork is practically the same between the two models.
We find the instruments very similar, it will come down to personal preference with which one you chose. We recommend you visit one of our stores to try different the models if you are unsure.

The American workplace has been under scrutiny over the past several years as workers across many industries — ranging from fashion to technology — have become increasingly vocal about the lack of diversity and inclusion at their companies.
To address this issue, 150 CEOs from some of the largest U.S. companies recently committed to a new initiative called CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion. The alliance of executives is meant to "foster a more open discussion about race and gender in the workplace," the New York Times reports.
Notably, the group claims it is the largest collection of business leaders spanning different industries committing to sharing successful diversity and inclusion initiatives.

Sean King, an eight-year-old second grader at Meridian Ranch Elementary School in Colorado Springs was pulled out of class by the principal for painting his face black when he dressed up as Martin Luther King, Jr. for wax museum day. The students were instructed to dress up as a historical figure. Sean, according to his mother, Michelle King-Roca, was excited: "He said, 'Mom, I want to wear a black suit because that's what he wore, a black tie, a white shirt and also I want to do my face black and wear a mustache."
Sean's parents accompanied their child to school, as did other parents, and were stunned by the turn of events: "Right before it was time to come in (to the classroom), the principal came up and stated he (Sean) was to take the face mask off. There was a person in the faculty that had an issue with it," said King-Roca. She and her husband ignored the principal's request to take Sean's make-up off and remained in the classroom waiting for Sean's presentation. But when the principal returned to the classroom, she and her husband were asked to come to the principal's office.
"I was upset. I started crying," said King-Roca.
A spokeswoman for the school, Stephanie Meredith, said it wasn't just a staff member who took offensive to Sean's face paint: "When other students are offended by something, it is the principal's role that the educational environment is safe for all students." She admitted that there were no guidelines given for the class project, but that the school's dress policy was against wearing face paint.
Sean was confused by the principal's request that he wash his face: "They thought it was inappropriate and it will be disrespectful to black people and I say it's not. I like black people. It's just a costume and I don't want to insult anybody."
Of course, the NAACP had to make its own sentiments heard; Rosemary Harris Lytle, the president of the Colorado Springs branch, said the school acted properly:
"When I saw the story about the young scholar who decided he would portray Martin Luther King for a class project, I was so proud of him. Unfortunately, by having blackface as part of his presentation, it ended up harkening back to a really tragic time in the life of this country, a time when blackface was used by entertainers primarily to demean African-Americans, and in a way I know this young man couldn't have intended to do … To go back to the history of minstrels and of blackface and of the sad time when people who were geniuses were portrayed as nothing more than figures of comedy."
It's ironic the NAACP is tacitly indicting an eight-year-old of racism for wanting to look like a great black American hero as much as possible.

"According to our approach, a city model is a constantly updated virtual city that provides a service platform for a range of service innovations For this to happen, we need public access to information through open interfaces," says Kari Tuukkanen, Director, ICT Solutions at Sito Ltd.
Tuukkanen considers city planning to be a prime example of an area where we need visionaries who are ready to meet future challenges. "For example, when the first robot cars will emerge, maybe within the next five to seven years, the classic in-car navigator maps will become obsolete. Robot cars require 3D HD maps, a dynamically updated 3D model of the built environment, and real-time data on traffic, parking etc.," continues Tuukkanen.
An open city model for Espoo's core areas
In the EUE's Regional Innovation Environment (RIE) package, city modelling focuses on the 3T area in Espoo (Tapiola, Otaniemi, Keilaniemi) and the connecting Länsimetro development corridor. This is designed to provide a pilot for a regional data model and show in practice how an open city model can serve urban development and the related innovation and citizens' services.

The 38-year-old manager of a Hyattsville fast-food restaurant was found slain in his office yesterday, according to Prince George's County police.
Police found Thomas Scott McQuade dead at 5 a.m. when they went to check a burglar alarm at a Hardee's restaurant in the 6500 block of New Hampshire Avenue, said police spokesman Cpl. James H. Shaffer. The officers found the restaurant's front door open and Mr. McQuade lying on the floor in a back office, Corporal Shaffer said.
Mr. McQuade, who lived in the 4800 block of Lauren Court in Ellicott City, had been stabbed several times in the upper torso.
Though no money appeared to have been taken, Corporal Shaffer said investigators are checking into robbery as a motive in the crime. Police said they have no suspects.

The line is well-worn, but terse and to the point.
In summing up the problems that retired males inflict on their spouses, beleaguered wives observe:
``I married him for better or worse, but not for lunch.``
If we are to believe the ladies, many husbands who have completed their time in harness become loads when they are pensioned off.
Men who were once productive citizens degenerate into lump-lumps who wander around the house bumping into the furniture and leaving peach pits on the coffee table.
Fear of spending the golden years in scorned obsolescence is the primary reason so many males dread retirement, organize age-discrimination protests and vote for Rep. Claude Pepper.
For my part, I wish Claude would shut up. I don`t want to work right up until my 87th birthday. When the time comes, I plan to be very good at retirement.
Preparation is the key. You don`t keep your shoulder to the wheel, your nose to the grindstone and your eye on the ball for 45 years, then just straighten up, clean out your desk and join a shuffleboard league.
The major problem, apparently, is total togetherness. Women who are used to unobstructed navigation in their homes don`t like to step over prone male bodies taking instant naps or share the remote TV control with vacant-eyed husbands watching Jane Fonda workout videos.
They don`t like to be shadowed by unmotivated mates who follow them from the refrigerator to the mail box to the garage just to have something to do.

NORTH HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Doc Johnson announced that its highly popular Japanese Style Bondage Ropes are currently back in stock and ready to ship.
The company said the popular fetish essential provides users with the pleasures of restraint while simultaneously titillating both the mind and body.
By exerting indirect and direct pressure on erogenous zones, the force of the ropes is dispersed throughout the entire body, creating an erotic sense of immobility. Users can employ complete or partial restraint techniques, making the ropes usable for newbies and connoisseurs alike.
"Fetish and BDSM gear has become increasingly popular in recent years, thanks to novels like 'Fifty Shades of Grey' and, of course, the rising acceptance of sex toys and emphasis on sexual health," COO Chad Braverman said.
He added, "With all of this excitement, we are pleased to announce that our bondage ropes are back in stock. We are certain that customers and retailers everywhere will be very happy with our high quality Japanese Style Bondage Rope."
Unlike most synthetic ropes that tend to be too slippery, Doc Johnson maintained that the well-made 32-foot long cotton rope easily retains its flexible strength without chafing or irritating the skin.
The ropes are available in red, black, and purple.

Last June, we decided to take a look at how prepared British businesses were in case of a ransomware attack. Some of the findings were surprising. For example, many organisations were already stockpiling digital currency in case of attack. A year on and one WannaCry later, how are things looking?
Our latest research, published to coincide with Infosecurity Europe 2017, shows that large British businesses are now prepared to pay out an average of £136,235.44 to regain access to important intellectual property or business critical data. This means that the average amount companies are willing to pay out has increased by 361%, from the £29,544 figure highlighted in last year's research.
The research – commissioned by Citrix UK and carried out by One Poll – quizzed 500 IT decision makers in companies with 250 or more employees across the UK to glean further insights into their strategies to defend against ransomware attacks.
Banking on bitcoin
The poll also revealed that more UK companies are now building a ready stockpile of digital currency (for example, Bitcoin) in case of a ransomware attack — rising from 33% in 2016 to 42% now. In fact, the research has revealed that large UK businesses stockpile an average of 23 bitcoins in case they are suddenly hit by an attack. Almost one in three (28%) keep more than 30 bitcoins on standby — providing them with the equivalent of over £50,000 (accurate as of June 5, 2017) in cryptocurrency in preparation.
The decision to stockpile digital currency reflects a widespread attitude that paying a ransom may be necessary. Just one fifth (22%) of businesses are not prepared to pay anything when struck with a ransomware attack — a reduction from 25% last year.
The mid-market crypto-fightback
Smaller companies are still more likely to keep a ready supply of cryptocurrency, such as Bitcoin, than larger businesses:
- 50% of businesses with 250-500 employees are stockpiling digital currency now while only one in three (36%) of these businesses were doing the same this time last year
- In comparison, large businesses with 1,000+ employees have not embraced this shift towards accumulating cryptocurrency – as in 2016, just a quarter (24%) of these businesses are taking this approach
Be prepared or pay out
The 2016 research revealed that one fifth (20%) of companies with 250-500 employees did not have any contingency measures in place in case of a ransomware attack; however, this has fallen to just 7% in 2017.
While many businesses are preparing to block ransomware attacks or pay out if hit, others are missing out on simple cyber hygiene procedures that can limit the impact of a ransomware attack. For instance, over half of large British businesses (55%) still don't back data up at least once a day.
As we've recently witnessed, cybercriminals employ ransomware to exploit the vulnerabilities that exist within British organisations. Many businesses are still being caught out. Organisations must ensure they're prepared for this very real threat. They must take positive steps to safeguard the IT network, and to protect mission-critical data.
Stockpiling digital currency against a potential ransom may feel like insurance. It isn't. There is no guarantee that data will be returned even when a ransom has been paid, and no recourse. Organisations need to reduce the chances of falling prey to ransomware in the first place, by having a contingency plan and sticking to it.
Organisations should also review their technology portfolio. Proven effective technology, from encryption to virtualisation can keep data and apps safe across all devices and desktops – and out of reach of today's persistent cyber attackers.
Citrix commissioned One Poll to conduct an online survey of 500 IT decision makers at companies across the UK with 250 or more employees between 22nd May and 26th May 2017.
This follows an online survey – commissioned by Citrix and carried out by Censuswide – of 250 IT and security specialists in UK companies with 250+ employees which took place between 19th May and 24th May 2016.
To read more about the state of IT security architecture in the UK, you can download this whitepaper, produced in association with the Ponemon Institute, as well as "Ransomware: Four Ways to Protect Data Now."

This study focuses on obeying the instruction to test spirits from a more scriptural perspective. It directs us to the Word of God as the ultimate authority in evaluating any teaching. Everything and everyone has a spiritual source and influence. Believers must master the discipline of testing the source of teaching, sermons, music etc if they want to avoid deception. Just because it is on christian radio does not mean it comes from the spirit that acknowledges Jesus Christ that came in the flesh. Read on…
John MacArthur Commentary – 1 John 4
Test Spirits (1 John 4:1-6)
Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God; and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God; this is the spirit of the antichrist, of which you have heard that it is coming, and now it is already in the world. You are from God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world. They are from the world; therefore they speak as from the world, and the world listens to them. We are from God; he who knows God listens to us; he who is not from God does not listen to us. By this we know the spirit of truth and the spirit of error. (4:1-6)
This simple Greek word—meaning "I have found it!"—became a life slogan for thousands of California gold prospectors in the mid-1800s. It summed up every treasure hunter's dream and expressed the thrill of striking pay dirt. For James Marshall (the first to discover the precious metal in 1848) and the "forty-niners" who followed him, the term eureka meant instant riches, early retirement, and a life of carefree ease.
But would-be prospectors quickly learned that not everything that appeared to be gold actually was. Riverbeds and rock quarries could be full of golden specks that were nevertheless entirely worthless. This "fool's gold" was iron pyrite, and miners had to be careful to distinguish it from the real thing. Their very livelihood depended on it.
Experienced miners could usually distinguish pyrite from gold simply by looking at it. But, in some cases, the distinction was not quite so clear. So, they developed tests to discern what was genuine from what was not. One test involved biting the rock in question. Real gold is softer than the human tooth, whereas fool's gold is harder. A second test involved scraping the rock on a piece of white stone, such as ceramic. True gold leaves a yellow streak, whereas the residue left by fool's gold is greenish black. In either case, a miner relied on tests to authenticate his finds—both his fortune and his future depended on the results.
Spiritually speaking, Christians often find themselves in a similar position to the California gold rushers of the mid-1800s. When confronted with various doctrines and religious teachings, all of which claim to be true, believers must be able to tell those that are biblically sound from those that are not.
As was true in the gold rush, just because something glitters doesn't mean it's good. Christians need to be equally wary of spiritual "fool's gold." They must not accept something as true without first testing it to see if it meets with God's approval. If it fails the test, Christians should discard it as false and warn others also. But if it passes the test, in keeping with the truth of God's Word, believers can embrace and endorse it wholeheartedly. California gold prospectors would cry "Eureka!" only when they found true gold. When it comes to spiritual things, Christians should be careful to do the same.
Learning to Live Discerningly – Test Spirits
Spiritual "fool's gold" is nothing new. In fact, the Old and New Testaments are filled with warnings about false teachers (Deut. 13:1-3; Isa. 8:19-20; Matt. 7:15; 24:4-5, 11, 24; Acts 20:29; Rom. 16:17-19; 2 Cor. 11:4, 13-15; Jude 4) and their counterfeit doctrines (Acts 20:30; 1 Tim. 1:4-7, 19; 6:20-21; 2 Tim. 2:17-18; 2 Peter 2:1; cf. Isa. 30:10). Christians must be discerning lest they be "children, tossed here and there by waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, by craftiness in deceitful scheming" (Eph. 4:14). It is crucial that they "examine everything carefully" in order to "hold fast to that which is good [and] abstain from every form of evil" (1 Thess. 5:21-22). Otherwise, they increase their vulnerability to satanic deception (Matt. 13:19; 2 Cor. 2:11; 4:4; 11:3, 14; 2 Thess. 2:9; cf. Gen. 3:1; Matt. 4:3-10; Luke 22:31; Eph. 6:10).
Satan's basic strategy for attacking the truth first became evident in the Garden of Eden, where he mounted a three-pronged assault on God's Word. First, he cast doubt on what God had said about eating the fruit of the tree of life ("Indeed, has God said, 'You shall not eat…?"', Gen. 3:1). Second, he denied outright what God had said to Adam ("You surely will not die!", v. 4). Finally, he added a distortion to what God had specifically told Adam ("you will be like God, knowing good and evil," v. 5). Ever since, Satan and his demonic forces have waged a relentless, nonstop campaign (cf. Rev. 16:14a) against the truth—still using their original tactics of doubt, denial, and distortion (cf. 2 Cor. 4:4).
Scripture contains many references to the long struggle for knowing, upholding, and obeying the truth. In the Old Testament, Moses (e.g., Deut. 4:1-31; 6:1-25; 8:1-20; 12:29-13:18; 30:1-20), Joshua (Josh. 23:1-24:28), Samuel (1 Sam. 12:1-25), Elijah (1 Kings 18:20-40), and the prophets (Isa. 31:6; 42:17; Jer. 8:5; 17:5; Ezek. 18:26; Hos. 14:1) continually called God's people back to the truth from falsehood and idolatry. And in the New Testament, Jesus Himself warned of false prophets (Matt. 7:15; 24:4-5, 11, 24), as did Paul (Acts 20:29; Rom. 16:17-18), Peter (2 Peter 2:1-3), John (1 John 2:18-24), and Jude (Jude 4-19).
As in the Garden of Eden, the source of error can always be traced to satanic roots (John 8:44). Thus Paul told Timothy: "But the Spirit explicitly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons, by means of the hypocrisy of liars seared in their own conscience as with a branding iron" (1 Tim. 4:1-2; cf. Lev. 17:7; Deut. 32:17; Ps. 106:34-39; James 3:14-16; Rev. 16:13-14). Any ideology, philosophy, opinion, or religion other than God's truth fits Satan's agenda—which is why it is so crucial for believers to recognize the difference between the Spirit of truth and the spirit of error.
If they fail to be discerning, Christians will not only be confused and unable to discern for themselves, but they will also be unable to accurately convey the truth to others. Thus, they must guard the truth (1 Tim. 6:20-21; 2 Tim. 1:13-14; Jude 3; cf. Acts 20:28; Prov. 23:23) by knowing it, firmly holding to it as a conviction (cf. Luke 1:4; John 8:32; 19:35; 1 Tim. 2:4; 2 Tim. 2:15), and distinguishing it from that which is false (cf. Phil. 3:2; Col. 2:8). By being faithful to sound doctrine, they will be able to teach others also (cf. 2 Tim. 2:2). The apostle John knew that his readers were under attack from false teachers. As a safeguard, he commanded them to test those who claim to teach the truth. He gave them reasons that such testing is crucial, and guidelines for how it should be conducted. In so doing, he laid out a strategy all Christians can use for distinguishing between true spiritual riches and doctrinal "fool's gold."
A Command to Test Spirits
Beloved, do not believe every spirit, (4:la) Having just discussed the abiding work of the Holy Spirit in true believers (3:24), John makes the transition to the work of unholy spirits in false teachers and their false teachings. Because these ancient, supernatural spirits are experts in deception, Christians must be careful to closely examine every spiritual message they encounter (cf. Matt. 10:16; 1 Thess. 5:21-22).
The imperative form of the verb believe, with the negative particle not, could literally be translated "stop believing." John's phrase indicates the forbidding of an action already under way. If any of his readers were uncritically accepting the message of false teachers, they were to stop doing so immediately. They needed to exercise biblical discernment, like the Bereans of whom Luke wrote, "Now these were more noble-minded than those in Thessalonica, for they received the word with great eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so" (Acts 17:11). Unbelievers, "being darkened in their understanding" (Eph. 4:18), have no basis on which to evaluate various teachings that claim divine origin (1 Cor. 2:14). Consequently they are highly susceptible to aberrant doctrine and can easily be led astray into error. But believers, who have the Word of truth and the Spirit of truth, must test what they hear with what they know to be true, as revealed in the Scriptures (1 Thess. 5:21-22).
A Reason to Test Spirits
But test …spirits to see whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out into the world. (4:15)
The term translated test is a present imperative form of the verb dokimazō. The term was used to refer to a metallurgist's assaying of metals to test their purity and value. John's use of the present tense indicates that believers are to continually test the spirits to see whether they are from God. Contrary to the view of some, this command has nothing to do with personally confronting demons or performing exorcisms. Instead, Christians are to continually evaluate what they see, hear (cf. 1 Cor. 14:29; 1 Thess. 5:20-21), and read to determine if it originated from the Spirit of God or, alternatively, from demons.
The only reliable way to test any teaching is to measure it against what God has revealed in His infallible, written Word (Isa. 8:20; cf. Prov. 6:23; 2 Tim. 3:16-17). As the perfect standard of truth (John 17:17) and the sword of the Spirit (Eph. 6:17), the Word of God provides believers with their primary defense against error (cf. 2 Cor. 10:3-5; Heb. 4:12).
The urgency of John's command resides in the fact that not a few but many false prophets have gone out into the world. Satan does not merely want to oppose the church (cf. Acts 5:3; 13:8-10; 16:16-23; 1 Thess. 2:18); he wants to deceive her (cf. 2 Cor. 11:14). In keeping with his fraudulent schemes, his minions have infiltrated denominations, churches, and other Christian schools, institutions, and organizations, resulting in compromise and error (cf. Jude 4).
Satan not only develops lies that directly deny biblical truth, but is also subtle, often sabotaging the truth by mixing it with error. Truth mixed with error is usually far more effective and far more destructive than a straightforward contradiction of the truth. Those who trust everything they read from the Christian bookstore or hear on Christian radio and television are prime targets for doctrinal deception. After all, as Paul wrote, "Satan disguises himself as an angel of light. Therefore it is not surprising if his servants also disguise themselves as servants of righteousness" (2 Cor. 11:14-15).
So Satan masquerades his lies as truth. (this is why we must test spirits) He does not always wage war openly against the gospel. He is much more likely to attack the church by infiltrating her walls with subtle error. He uses the Trojan horse stratagem by placing his false teachers in the church, where they can "secretly introduce destructive heresies" (2 Peter 2:1). He puts his lies in the mouth of someone who claims to speak for Jesus Christ (Matt. 4:6; Acts 20:30). In this way, the Devil disguises falsehood as truth, making that which is evil look like that which is good. For the rest of this study go to the link below…

Can Salesforce Become a Platform?November 21st, 2007 - 1:18 am ICT by admin
Marc Benioff has never been modest in his dreams for Salesforce.com, the business software company he founded in 1999. Benioff, a brash and voluble man whose appetite for both publicity and growth matches his bulk, declared several years ago that Salesforce would be "the Microsoft of the 21st century." Never mind that his company earned over the previous 12 months what Microsoft makes on a slow morning. Or that another company, Google, seems much more likely to wear that label.
Salesforce promised to revolutionize the way businesses buy software, and to a large extent it has accomplished that in one market niche: customer tracking. Its innovation was in turning software into a service that is leased over the Internet, instead of something bought and installed on company computers.
And yet for Benioff, that is not enough. He wants to turn Salesforce into a platform like Microsoft's Windows operating system, a product so popular that it is the foundation for a veritable ecosystem of software developers.
"In our industry," said Benioff, the company's chief executive, "the only companies that really make it big move from being a 'killer app' to being a platform."
There is a lot riding on this strategy. Salesforce has started to look less revolutionary as larger, more established companies have adopted its leasing model. And as Benioff himself notes, few software companies successfully make the leap to platform status.
Making that jump is critical to Salesforce's long-term success. Its share price has tripled in three years, showing that investors are counting on success beyond the market for customer-tracking software.
"It's been very impressive what Salesforce has pulled off," said J. Bruce Daley, editor of The Enterprise Software Observer, an industry newsletter. "But I think this is a company about to hit a wall."
Like others, Daley declared…

just right great priceVerified Buyer Reviewed by K from Oregon on Monday, June 1, 2015I was in the market for short sleeved lightweight jerseys without full zip and found these on close out. At such a great price I bought two and have no regrets. Black is a no brainer for me but I think the rose color might end up being my favorite. I have broad shoulders and a short torso, and the Large fit just right, not too tight but fitted. Love the deep pockets. Fabric is great, perfect for hot rides.
Great fabric and color, just too short for meVerified Buyer Reviewed by Jenny from Spartanburg, SC on Monday, April 6, 2015I loved the dazzling blue color, but the jersey was just too short for my comfort. I like my shirts to partially cover my hips. I also sized up to a medium, when I'm usually a small.
STAINSReviewed by hikebikerun from Oregon on Tuesday, December 2, 2014An okay lightweight jersey for a good price; wore it all summer and it is still in decent shape - except no longer lime green! I loved the color for the high-visibility, and it was lightweight without being too see-through, but after a couple trips wearing a backpack or getting splattered on wet days pre-fenders, certain areas are permanently stained. Sad.
RUNS BIG, note classic fitVerified Buyer Reviewed by Dara The Explorer from Las Vegas, NV on Wednesday, September 10, 2014Nice material. Note this one runs wide for PI. I would describe it as boxy throughout the body where as most pearl izumi is slim cut and runs on the smaller side. If you carry weight in the stomach or just prefer a looser fir this is the jersey for you. I sent it back as it was not the cut that I was looking for. If you want a looser fitting jersey, possibly to layer, this is a good option.
Nice but lightweightVerified Buyer Reviewed by Saco from Maine on Wednesday, August 20, 2014Did not love the color and too lightweight for my purpose.

Apple needs to feel more pressure from nonprofits, charities and public media on this topic. They don't feel the heat right now, and even if they seem impervious it's worth mounting a serious effort.
Send Mr. Jobs A Message:
kerryj.com, kamichat, and 2 other people added this photo to their favorites.
cant stand that man you got my vote!
I'm curious. It seems like a web app would be the perfect solution for non-profits. They are easier to create than actual apps, don't fall under the Apple review system and for the purpose of making contributions are indistinguishable from real apps. You can even put an icon on your screen just like "real" apps.
The user doesn't have to "go" anywhere, they are already on a custom-designed web-app page, but most people would probably think they are in an app. There's absolutely no reason for donations to be made via an app. And in fact, for your purposes, the app that you claim you want really just behaves like a custom browser interface . . . which is what a web app _is_.
As was quoted in the NYT article:
"One of Apple's major objections has been that if donations were to go through its payment mechanism, it would have to be in the business of managing and distributing funds and verifying charities as well," said Jake Shapiro, executive director of Public Radio Exchange, or PRX, an online nonprofit marketplace for licensing and distributing public radio programming.
This is a protest over nothing, a lot of rebels but no real cause.
Make an end-run around Apple if you don't like their process, create a web app.
Then you can go back to raising money for those in need . . . unless that is what this whole protest is really about, using Apple to drum up publicity for your organization.
I support Apple for this- after all, I don't want anyone at Apple (Steve Jobs included) to be making the decision about WHICH non-profit should be supported and which shouldn't. But I guess everyone's entitled to a petition and to try to drum up PR. After all, I fell for it by coming to this site and reading the NY Times article...
To me, it seems quite remarkable that the last couple of posters are supporting Apple on this. What's going on?
Perhaps they aren't aware that Apple is already in the business of reviewing apps & deciding which ones get the Apple seal of approval? All of those fart apps that charge $0.99 have been approved for the App Store and for Apple's simple charging mechanism.
For the charities I would think the process would be much easier for Apple: the U.S. government already has a process for verifying them. If a charity turns out to be bogus then they lose their government status and Apple can delist them.
My point is, if they can review and approve hundreds of thousands of other apps, why can't they do it for charity apps? It would be simple and straight-forward compared to the existing controversial and messy process.
Regarding the idea of creating a web app, well, one of the lessons learned from Apple's App Store is that Apple users are quite happy to spend money if the process is made very simple (Amazon found the same thing). If they have to go through the process of registering and providing their credit card all over again then they won't do it.
Am I missing something?
Hamster: Exactly, there are verifications systems in place for verifying charities - and Apple isn't making any decisions. Nonprofit who create apps and use them as a part of donation strategy are the ones who will make the decision - but Apple won't let them.

When you are running a business, or you are just the manager who is in charge of buying and selling equipment, one of the things that you must do is ensure that you are seeking value in every transaction. And that means that you cannot just go and find the best and most expensive item that you will need in the factory or the warehouse. It means that you will have to make some smart decisions about what to buy, and when renting may be the best option. You will have to know what choice to make regarding these items.
For instance, if you are looking for items that you are not going to use constantly, renting makes a lot more sense. Let us say that you have a special batch of items that is only coming in one or two times a year. You may think that you can buy the lifts that you need to move those items to various levels of the warehouse, but we do not believe it is a necessity. And it does not always make sense to buy an item just to use it one or two times a year. And that is why scissor lift rental dallas is a good option.
Whether you need vertical conveyers, scissor lifts or some other item that is used a warehouse, and you only need it temporarily, then rentals are a fantastic option. Why? Because you are getting a top quality product that is tested to be in working order, and you are getting it for a fraction of the price it would cost to buy. When you are all done with the item, you will simply contact the company that gave you the item as a rental, and they will send someone over to come and pick it up!

Only one in five employers believes that their existing merit pay approach is effectively driving performance. Traditionally, the three standard tools for motivating employees have been perks, benefits and salary—but in today's workplace, it takes much more to motivate behavior and keep employees engaged.
If an organization wants to attract and retain the best talent, it must stay in tune with the beat of its workforce. Who our workers are and what they value has changed. Today's workplace is collaborative and transparent, and employees are greatly motivated by opportunities for growth, development and learning. A few years ago, performance management and compensation were tightly linked across most companies because we understood compensation to be the biggest motivator of performance. But that's no longer the case.
When employees find purpose and opportunities for growth, they'll work harder and stick around. What has the biggest impact on engagement? Turns out it's holding frequent conversations between managers and employees to keep them informed and on track. Apart of monetary compensation, employers should be aligning employees' work to the big picture, listening to what they have to say and helping them grow.
Setting more ambitious goals
When compensation is removed from the performance management picture, it frees managers and employees to set more ambitious goals. Tightly coupling goals to compensation—by paying employees a percentage of their salary based on specific objectives for example--induces employees to exaggerate obstacles and sandbag their abilities. Compensating employees fairly, combined with frequent feedback and opportunities for development, does far more to encourage employees to set a high bar and go all out to clear it.
Until just a couple years ago, I was a big believer in management by objectives (MBOs). In my previous role, we utilized an MBO model and executive team bonuses to drive employee performance. Yet I found these methods were incompatible with the new preferred style of working, where a greater focus is placed on frequent feedback, mentoring and coaching. When employees stay focused on how their own work relates to corporate strategy instead of checking things off a list, it dramatically improves their sense of connection and engagement, while aligning the organization.
Laszlo Bock, Google's SVP of People Operations and author of Work Rules!, agrees. Concerning performance and compensation, he says, "If you want people to grow, don't have those two conversations at the same time. Make development a constant back and forth between you and your team members, rather than a year-end surprise."
To get employees to perform at their highest level, discussions around compensation and performance must get divorced. Instead, I recommend paying employees a fair wage and setting really high expectations. Goals, or objectives, should be loosely coupled to pay, meaning they are used for performance evaluation and merit increases. Placing a strong emphasis on ongoing performance development does far more to motivate employees.

WINNER's Kang Seungyoon Compliments Nam Taehyun on "Actor's School"
Boy group WINNER's Kang Seungyoon said he wishes he can also appear on tvN's "Actor's School."
On February 22, WINNER appeared on SBS's Radio Power FM's "Kim Chang Ryul's Old School."
Kang Seungyoon opened up about Nam Taehyun's appearance on "Actor's School." He said, "I don't have any criticisms. He's absorbing everything like a sponge and he's doing a great job. Makes me want to learn with him."
Nam Taehyun responded, "I want to graduate 'Actor's School' as the number one student." He added, "Acting is so fun. I'm learning so much from actor Park Shin Yang. It's hard work, but I'm really enjoying myself."
However, Song Minho said, "I'll focus on music rather than acting since other members are doing the acting."
WINNER recently released their latest album and has been busy promoting its title song "Sentimental" and "Baby Baby." The group WINNER is slated to hold their very first concert "WINNER Exit Tour in Seoul" on March 12 and 13 at Seoul Olympic Gymnastics Stadium.

Sometimes people ask us, "Why don't you do karate or dance or cheer or swimming or any other sports?" We could if we wanted, but we are gymnastics experts, and we don't take to that role lightly. We are a little different. We teach the best gymnastics at all levels. The success of our gymnastics team our first year in business proves that fact. Our coaches teach amazing, technically correct gymnastics in all of our classes. We don't just throw out a newly hired high school student to teach your child a very complex sport. Our coaches endure rigorous training.
For example, most "gymnastics clubs" will provide a Mommy and Me class, similar to our Little Tots program, but the class is simply a time for the children to run around the gym unsupervised while the Mommies talk. Usually, the coach does not know how to relate to a small child or understand how to move their bodies correctly. While this is a great social time for mom, you're wasting your money. Our Little Tots program uses a curriculum designed from years of gymnastics and child development experience that actually teaches the students useful skills in everyday life, as well as gymnastics. Yes, mom must participate in the class, but the bonding time with your child is invaluable and the results are endless. Simply ask any mom who attended a high school graduation this past weekend if she could have those years back!
Some gyms claim to teach Olympic gymnastics, a claim full of ignorance and amateurishness. There is only one type of correct artistic gymnastics. The Olympics is one competitive meet held every four years. The type of gymnastics on display at the Olympics is no different than the gymnastics seen at every meet every year in cities all over the world. Of course, the gymnastics at the Olympics is of a very high caliber, but it all begins at the same place. Every Olympic gymnast must first learn a correct front roll, handstand, pullover, and cartwheel, and gymnastics clubs that skip these very important basic skills, do so at their own peril and that of your child.
Additionally, some gyms will say they are non-competitive yet have competitive gymnastics teams. Whether or not to participate in competitive gymnastics is a choice made by the gymnast, parent, and coach. No one can force your child to be a competitive gymnast, but if the desire is present in a child, an outlet for successful competitive gymnastics should be made available and it is disingenuous for a club to say one thing and do another. It is absolutely fine to not want to compete in gymnastics as the benefits of gymnastics instruction are seen in other areas of a child's life such as school or other sports. Correct gymnastics is an amazing building block for other sports.
We're not perfect because we're human, but we strive every single day to provide you and your family with the best possible gymnastics instruction. We take our sport very seriously and have spent years studying and participating in the sport of gymnastics. Gymnastics can be dangerous when taught without a severe respect for the dangers involved or taught haphazardly with no regard to proper technique and basic development. At Best Gymnastics, these qualities are the basis of our program. We take the time to teach your child safely and correctly. We have 6:1 student to teacher ratios in our beginning classes because the beginning is so important. We love the sport of gymnastics and want every parent and child who walks through our doors to experience these amazing benefits. To all of us, gymnastics is best.

What vegetable plays a crucial role during the autumn months? Pumpkins, of course.
This year, for the students in Carly Lauzonis' first- and Jenn Riccuti's fifth-grade classes at St. Peter's School, pumpkins were the topic of a five-day interdisciplinary STEM research project. Pictured are students experimenting to see if different kinds of pumpkins float or sink.

Their court was well in order.
Chemeketa's mock trial team celebrated the conclusion of its second year, and the increase in success that came with it, with a showcase and reception on April 20 in the Salem campus auditorium.
Students acted as prosecuting attorneys, defense attorneys and witnesses, with coach and political science instructor Maria Cruse acting as judge. The showcase ran through the defense portion of State v. Bancroft, the case used this year in competition by the American Mock Trial Association (AMTA), the governing body of collegiate mock trial. Chemeketa is one of only two community colleges in the country that is a AMTA member.
In the case, a casino owner in the fictional state of Midlands has been charged with attempting to bribe the chairperson of the state's gaming commission in order to receive a new casino license. The defense team attempted to argue the casino owner was entrapped by an overzealous police officer working for the gaming commission.
The team has been competing in invitation tournaments throughout the year at locations including Eugene, Seattle and Berkeley. The primary competition of the year, the AMTA's regional tournament, was held in early February in Boise. Chemeketa fielded both an A and B team in the tournament this year due to the increase in participation.
Chemeketa's A team had the most competitive schedule of the 22 teams in the tournament, facing off against the likes of Cal, Gonzaga and Stanford. The team rose to the challenge, by beating Stanford's A team in their opening matchup. The B team was an honorable mention for the tournament's Spirit of AMTA award. Suzanne Johnson, the B team's captain, received an individual award for Outstanding Witness.
David Hallett, the college's executive dean of general education and transfer studies and a former practicing attorney, praised the work the students put in throughout the year in preparation for their tournaments.
"I can tell you that I could easily be the president of the fan club of the mock trial team," Hallett said.
Dean of Social Sciences R. Taylor told the friends and family of the team members they should be proud of the team's accomplishments this year.
"I hope what you just saw explains to you all the hours they spent (working)," Taylor said.
Taylor also highlighted the Stanford win as a key accomplishment.
Cruse introduced all the team members and also pointed out success in mock trial was more than just knowing the case.
"They have to learn legal procedure," Cruse said. "They have to learn so much, and we have such a short amount of time to teach it to them, but they do such a great job picking those things up."

The Jets signed Bryan Little to a six-year, $31.75-million extension Friday, proving that they're dedicated to keeping the pieces in tact to ensure this team can deliver on its promise for future success.
In our Future Watch edition in 2015, we picked the Winnipeg Jets to win the Stanley Cup in 2019, which means they have two years to fulfill their destiny. That means an appearance in the playoffs and at the very least a decent playoff run is mandatory in 2017-18.
So we may have to push that back a tad. But it was what GM Kevin Cheveldayoff said when he talked about the organization's plethora of young talent that revealed he absolutely gets it in his approach to franchise building. He knows the Jets are never going to be a preferred destination for top free agents, so why waste your resources chasing them? He talked instead of taking the players they draft and creating an environment that will have them wanting to stay. That way if the drafters and developers do their jobs, they shouldn't feel the need to chase unrestricted free agents.
"We've said it since Day 1, once players come here, they're going to enjoy being here," Cheveldayoff said. "And we know the kids we draft and the kids we develop, they're going to know from Day 1 what it's like to be part of the Jets family and they're going to embrace that."
And that was exactly what happened when they signed Bryan Little to a six-year deal worth $5.3 million per year Wednesday. Instead of chasing free agents, the Jets concentrated on keeping their own from becoming them. Getting the jump by one season, the Jets signed an extension that will keep Little with them until he's 36 years old. They've already displayed a willingness to walk the walk by keeping Mark Scheifele and Dustin Byfuglien in the fold with long contract extensions and refused to buckle to Jacob Trouba's contract demands. This is something the Jets know they must do to have any hope of being seriously competitive.
Did they overpay Little? Not in the short term, but almost certainly in the long term. Do they risk him becoming a seriously declining asset in the final years of the deal? Without a doubt. But as long as this deal doesn't seriously hamper the Jets' ability to sign their young players to long-term deals after this season, it shouldn't pose too much of a problem. The reality is, Cheveldayoff has a crucial summer ahead of him in 2018. Nikolaj Ehlers, Trouba and Josh Morrissey are due to become restricted free agents and Patrik Laine will be entering the final year of his entry-level deal, meaning the Jets will be able to sign him to a long-term extension anytime after July 1, the kind of extension Cheveldayoff was talking about where a player sees what's around him, likes it and decides to stay for the long-term.
Showing those young players that you're intent on keeping your good players is an excellent place to start. Since coming to Winnipeg, Little has proved to be a pretty consistent 20-goal scorer who can put up numbers somewhere in the 50-point range. He had 21 goals and 47 points last season despite playing through much of the campaign with a knee injury that occurred in the first period of the first game in 2016-17. Had Little managed to match that production going into unrestricted free agency, there would have been no shortage of teams after him, willing to overpay him and give him a longer term the same way the Jets did. So really, if they look at him through that prism after this season, they'll likely be happy with the deal.
Keeping a player of that ilk around will show some of those young players that the organization is serious about building a contending team and it might nudge them into making a long-term commitment. So if the Jets have to give a deal like the one they gave to Little to get their best young players under contract long-term, that's probably a choice they're willing to make.
Now it's time for the Jets to prove they're something more than a collection of promise. If this franchise is going to begin the process of becoming a team that is truly to be reckoned with in the Western Conference, the time to start showing it is now. And with a player such as Bryan Little happy and secure, that should help the process of fostering a winning environment.

Week 6 Reflection Blog Post: To Flip or Not to Flip
Is transferring lectures to video and having students view the videos outside of class so they can spend class time working on worksheets and writing papers the true nature of flipping a classroom? Given the limited scope of the definition I would say no.
Flipping a class is an extremely intriguing concept and I found the assigned materials quite interesting. Obviously, appealing factors include the increased time for differentiation, student's active involvement (collaboration), and ability to reach higher orders of critical thinking. In addition to the material provided in this lesson there is a plethora of information, resources, and support networks available to assist in implementing a flipped classroom. I was quite impressed with Mrs. Garcia's 7th grade Pre Algebra site. Watching a few of her instructional videos it quickly became obvious that a student could easily review the video numerous times to secure concepts they may not readily grasp. I believe this to be a good pedagogy for many of the reasons stated previously. What I like most is the ability to provide instant feedback and the avoidance of homework frustration. Additionally, this construct will allow time to revisit concepts for specific students or groups as required. I also believe this to be an effective approach to teaching and learning as it allows more time for interactive activities where the students can "do" rather than sitting in a receive mode.
I spent some time thinking about how this could be implemented into my current 3rd grade classroom. I conducted a web search to locate other 3rd grades classes that have been successfully flipped and stumble onto some videos worth sharing. The video link below is a You Tube video presented by a teacher who has been teaching math 8th grade for the past 5 years. She flipped two years ago. She does an awesome job of describing how she benefits from extensive differentiation time. If you are interest the link is provided below.
At the end of her video it directs you to
This site is particularly interesting as it discusses flipping a classroom with a focus on Bloom's Taxonomy. Dr. Lodge McCammon show a grid that he refers to as the FIZZ professional development framework. The grid shows Bloom's taxonomy on the vertical axis beginning with the lower order thinking skills increasing to the higher order thinking skills. Above creating, they add publishing as and additional higher order thinking skill. Along the horizontal axis they indicate learning styles. The goal is to develop your video lessons incorporating as many learning styles as possible while also addressing the elements of Bloom's taxonomy. I see this as a tool that would be extremely valuable in developing effective videos.
How can this approach be implemented effectively in my classroom? Although I am a big fan we have some obstacles to overcome. First of all, the third grade team at King George Elementary school is structured where each teacher teaches multiple subjects. Approximately 5% to 10% of my current students do not have a computer at home. As noted by Katie Gimbar in the video above, she has students without electronic media replay capability in her classroom and has devised a workaround. Her solution is to have them use school computers at lunch or other opportune times during the day. Worst case, they can do it at the beginning of the session along with anyone else who did not review the lesson. She knows who did not do the video lesson because she requires them to take some notes and write a few example problems. She checks the notes prior to beginning the planned activities. Using Katie's proven strategy I believe I could overcome this hurdle. Another very interesting point she makes in her Penn State session is that for the video to have the full effect it must be produced by the classroom teacher. Some of her 8th fellow math teachers tried using her videos but the success was marginal. In the video Katie discusses the teacher, student, parent, connection to her videos and the difficulty connecting to something like a Kahn video that has voice only. If you have time these videos are worth watching. I believe flipping is a very proactive approach and I would like to implement it in one of my subjects and if successful flip additional classes.
